southpaw Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 A situation similar to last year's Frozen Faceoff wouldn't be the worst thing in the world. Even with a couple of losses, DU is nearly locked into the overall number one spot. IF they find themselves in the third place game against UND, I'd imagine the Pioneers will again use it as a chance to rest a bunch of guys. That could be huge for a UND team that would likely need a win in that game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frozen4sioux Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 IMO Jost would greatly benefit from another year of growing into his Man body and polishing his game. Not only that but by taking a leadership role. I'd give him the "C". He will be a better pro. However, Colorado is a dumpster fire of Indian food filled diapers. They will push hard to sign him. He will struggle until he doesn't. That may not be in Colorado. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope, sincerely hope, Tyson Jost stays for a sophomore season to build the body and finish polishing the details of his game (ala Toews). Plus, he'd be the immediate favorite for the Hobey. 2. If he stays, hang the "C" on him now simply off his third period on Friday. That is all. Pretty sure, we though this same thing about Brock. Granted he had a lot of injuries to deal with as well. So often, be a hobey candidate or winner is not just because of the individual talent, but a product of the those around you. Jost is so so good, but he need to have a cohesive line that generates production. DOT line, CBS line ... those guys were always scoring, so certain players were lighting up the stat sheets. Agreed, he would likely wear a C, or at least an A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably won't happen, and who knows if we even see them again this season, but how funny would it be to end DU's season in that national tournament. After last year, and how good they have been this year, I'm almost crying/laughing at the idea of that happening. Would be pretty fun.

petey23 Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 To those fortunate enough to have Fargo Regional tickets in their hands. If UND doesn't make the tourney and a certain team from Minnesota ends up there I will just say this. remember 2011 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had freebies thanks to a buddy but did notice that around the arena. I had the same problem at the 2000 regional at Mariucci. Gopher fans all around the building asking for WAY MORE than face value for tickets. Maybe 4,000 actual attendees once I got in the door.

I have been to Cincy, Milwaukee, St. Louis, Denver, Boston, etc. and always bought tickets from other fans who decided not to attend an always paid face value.....except in St. Paul..... My advice to UND fans who have tickets to the regional and in the vent our favorite squad is making tee times and if you decide not to attend is to charge face value to any fan except those from a certain fanbase 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siouxfan512 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Can anyone clarify the NCHC tie breakers. Looks like we have the same number of points as Omaha, have beat them 3 out of 4, but are still stuck behind them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UND does own the tie breaker. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
